School Milk

Our school works in partnership with 'Cool Milk'  to supply free and subsidised school milk to children in our school.

School milk is free for under-5s, and for over-5s it is available at a subsidised* price of around £18 per term.

Each child that registers with Cool Milk will receive a 189ml portion of semi-skimmed milk every day, delivered fresh and chilled to the classroom. Their school milk will not only provide them with essential nutrients, but as it is rehydrating and energy boosting it also bridges the gap between breakfast and lunch to help children stay focused. For more information on how milk can benefit children visit www.coolmilk.com/why-milk-is-great.

 School Milk Subsidy Scheme

* The UK government continues to support school milk. Milk for under-5s is fully funded by DHSC via the Nursery Milk Scheme. Milk for over-5s is subsidised by Defra via the School Milk Scheme.

 Free Milk for FSM children

Any child of primary school age who is entitled to free school meals (FSM) due to their family's financial circumstances are also eligible to have free milk provided by school.

 Milk for those eligible for free school meals is ordered by the school office, please do not order directly from Cool Milk. Please let us know if you think that your child is eligible and you would like them to receive milk in school.
